Turning a lens on her kin, photographer Andrea Stern captures the visually rich and psychologically intriguing world of a wealthy Jewish family in New York. She chronicles momentous family gatherings-weddings, bar mitzvahs, funerals-as well as everyday events, such as visits to a grandmother in Palm Beach and weekend trips to Long Island.
